Comment (by dyne2meter):

 Once again, the new octave update comes to the rescue, and with its build
 dependencies installed, the maxima build succeeds. This is not too tedious
 a process on the dual quad-core MacPro @3.0 GHz, but it takes about an
 hour to install octave on the dual core iMac running @ 2.4 GHz. It would
 be nice to know which (few?) of these build dependencies are essential in
 my case. It could be that my installations of MacPorts have some
 idiosyncracies as a  result of manually updating the rest of my installed
 ports when one port is not building. I just don't know the ins and outs,
 and I don't know how large is the maxima user base that is ''not'' having
 this problem. It's an interesting situation, at least for me.
